Mate, I'm sorry for not saving come round...had a manic and quite unpleasant few months If for whatever reason the Jag doesn't sell today, I'll pop it round on Sunday otherwise I'll pop round in a couple of weeks with the SLS.

Enjoy

Thanks...is the finally a car that's as fast as the Datsun? (although my turbo might have just managed that!). Funny eh, you have to go right to the top of some car ranges to get close to the GT-R's performance!

How long will this bad boy last?

Thanks Carl....Vicki loves it and I know this because I set the condition that the RRS also had to go if we got this as the purchase of the SLS wasn't saving me as much as I would have liked

I'm sure others have had cars of higher value than what I paid (ignore list price)...didn't Hoops have some expensive kit and here was another guy with a new GT3RS a couple of years back?

im keen to know where you purchased it from - having read your threads over the last year and following your need for perfection, im not sure the vendor/dealer will be expecting you!

PM sent....and at the perfection I expect. Breaking away from the fantastic Jag dealer is a concern to me

Deal is definitely not finalised yet! The deals are very good on them though.

We actually looked at the new A Class at first when they came out but, whilst it was a nice car to drive, the driving position was shocking (in fact, appalling for a new car....has anyone driven one of these yet?) and whilst MB quoted 36mpg urban, 44mpg combined and 55mpg extra urban, I struggled to average 30mpg when driving normally!! It was an A250 petrol (2.0t) but not even achieving the urban figure when not thrashed is a disgrace.

Looking forward to the pics of both new cars mate.. Shame we couldn't all have met with the some of the cars on here. Would have been an awesome photo

I'm always looking (at SLS's anyway)

We can get that photo....you just need to come to one of the meets!
